It's really not a point, it's just a comment and then a question.
I want to thank you, Rick, for bringing this forward. It's a great bill as far as I'm concerned.
You're right when you say it's all about families. I never had any problem with the intent of this bill right from the very beginning. I think the intent was quite clear. It seems to me one piece of our vocabulary that gets lost nowadays is common sense. The bond between a child and a parent is always there. No matter what happens, there is a bond. I think that's what we need to remember. I've had an experience in my own family, and I can tell you it is extremely important. The possibility of children being able to visit with the one who is going to expire is so important.
It's nothing against lawyers, but it seems to me every time something comes up this nitpicking seems to be way bigger than it ought to be. It looks to me like the important thing here is that the intent is loud and clear, and I think everybody would say yes, it's good common sense to acknowledge this. We all know the provinces and the territories are the ones responsible for implementing the laws that we pass in this place.
When do you think this bill will be raised with the provincial and territorial authorities? I think their way of administering it is going to be the real key to the success of this bill.
